SLA Monitoring to check the ISPs?

[Marc_Abaya]

Before moving all our sites to MX, I have this capability on my previous firewalls to track the SLA of ISPs connected to WAN and they can be brought down temporarily if they are not meeting the SLA. For example, I will monitor the Packet Loss of the ISP and if it's more than 10%, it will be disabled automatically so that all traffic will use the second ISP.

I don't seem to find this option with the MX. What's your work-around? Some of our sites are in rural areas and on bonded DSL and we often see them 'flapping' or with high Packet Loss. But the MX keeps on using them still.

At a guess you don't have the correct license.

The uplinks are allways monitored by the connection monitor. Both uplinks are monitored continously. If the primary uplink fails, the MX switches to the secondary uplink. In case of loadbalancing, the failed uplink is not used any more. Failback will be delayed by 15 seconds to deal with flapping links.

Maybe your specific conditions let the MX not recognize the bad link.

You can buy the SD-WAN Plus license and configure performance classes to make the uplink decisions (Security & SD-WAN > Configure > SD-WAN & Traffic Shaping).

Notice: Without SD-WAN Plus license these performance classes can only be used with Auto VPN traffic, not with internet traffic.
